America’s system of check and balances, ZakariaÂ maintained, creates political paralysis, damaging the country. Â Needless to mention that to remedy this antiquated system is to Â bring AmericaÂ under a single leader,Â just like…. the caliphate, perhaps?

A CNN pundit who has advocated nuclear containment of Iran and expressed antipathy towards American democracy is said to be on the short list for a top diplomatic post in a second Obama administrationâ€”perhaps even secretary of State. That is raising red flags across Capitol Hill and within foreign policy circles.

Fareed ZakariaÂ hosts CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS,” a weekly program focusing on international issues and American foreign policy. Zakaria is also an editor-at-large forTimeÂ magazine and a columnist for theÂ Washington Post, where heÂ regularly praisesthe president’s policies.

Zakaria has gone to great lengths to ingratiate himself to Obama, frequently flattering the president and vociferously attacking his critics on both sides of the political aisle. This could be the reason Obama isÂ so keenÂ on the pundit, sources said.

“Every column he’s written in theÂ Washington PostÂ for the last two years has been a job application,” said one longtime Washington foreign policy insider who requested anonymity. “He’s just climbing the greasy pole.”

Rumors that Zakaria could receive a high-level post in the Obama administrationhave persistedÂ since before the 2008 election, when Zakaria himself admitted he was “flattered” to hear his name bandied about as a potential pick for Secretary of State.

Speculation has only increased over the years, as Zakaria and Obama bonded over severalÂ face-to-face sit-downsÂ and powwows about critical world events. It has even beenÂ reportedÂ that the president phones the CNN talking head to get “wisdom and advice about issues around the world.”

Asked about a potential posting in the Obama administration in aÂ 2007 interviewÂ with theÂ Wall Street Journal, Zakaria demurred.

“I’m flattered, I suppose,” he told the paper. “But I’m not a ‘party man,’ and you usually have to demonstrate that kind of loyalty to be chosen for government office.”

Since that time, however, Zakaria has gone to great lengths toÂ protect and bolsterObama’s reputation. Â For instance, he has argued that Obama “is a centrist and pragmatist who understands that in a country divided over core issues, you cannot make the best the enemy of the good.”

Even as Zakaria has earnedÂ plauditsÂ for his commentary on international affairsâ€”including a spot onÂ Foreign PolicyÂ magazine’sÂ top 100Â global thinkers listâ€”he has also worked to discredit evidence indicating that Iran is on the cusp of obtaining a nuclear weapon and levied harsh criticisms of the U.S. political system.

Foreign policy experts on Capitol Hill and elsewhere warned that Zakaria’s aggressive defense of the Iranian regime, as well as his continued criticism of Israel, would lead to a disastrous shift at the highest levels of the executive branch.

With Zakaria at the helm, things could get “incredibly dangerous” at Foggy Bottom, where the State Department is headquartered, said a senior GOP Senate aide.

“The policy of Barack Obama is to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. Fareed Zakaria is now to the left of Barack Obama on Iran. There’s no way someone like that is qualified to be Secretary of State,” said the source.

Iran is one of Zakaria’s main areas of interest. Week after week on his television show and in hisÂ columns, he dismisses the international community’s fears about Iran, arguing that the regime is rational and that its nuclear program can be effortlessly contained.

“Before we set out on a path to another Middle East war, let’s remember some facts,” ZakariaÂ wroteÂ in the March 9th issue ofÂ Time. “First, Iran does not have nuclear weapons. And the evidence is ambiguous as to whether it has decided to make them.”

Iran, however, hasÂ continued its nuclear buildup, enriching uranium to near dangerous levels and building a complex nuclear infrastructure, according to the CIA.

Zakaria has also dismissed concerns that Iran would allow terrorists to access their nuclear stockpile, despite the fact that the regime is the number oneÂ backer of terrorist groupsÂ across the world.

“Would a country that has labored for decades to pursue a nuclear program and suffered huge sanctions and costs to do so then turn around and give the fruits of its efforts to a gang of militants?” ZakariaÂ wondered. “This kind of reasoning is part of the view that the Iranians are mad, messianic people bent on committing mass suicide.”

“The entire premise of this, that Iran is a rational regime, is so idiotic,” said the GOP source on Capitol Hill. “No other regime on Earth has a track record of passing major weapons to terrorists,” including Hezbollah and other rogue operators.

Zakaria has also referred to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a “ward boss” and accused the Jewish state of colonizing the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

“[Zakaria] has a surprisingly naÃ¯ve view of the world for somebody seemingly so cosmopolitan,” saidÂ Cliff May, president of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, a national security think-tank.

“It would be a poor choice” to appoint him to a post inside the Obama administration, said May, aÂ longtimeÂ criticÂ of Zakaria. “I don’t think a journalist has ever been appointed as a Secretary of State, and there’s a reason for that practice, maybe some wisdom behind it.”

Zakaria’s views on the Constitution and the American democratic system have also raised eyebrows.

“The truth is we have a pretty complicated, antiquated system that has become dysfunctional,” ZakariaÂ toldÂ talk show host Charlie Rose last year.

HeÂ also has referredÂ to the Electoral College as “highly undemocratic” and called the Senate “even more undemocratic,” advocating instead for “a set of amendments to modernize the Constitution for the 21st century.”

America’s system of check and balances, ZakariaÂ maintained, creates political paralysis, damaging the country’s ability to be a world leader.

Zakaria’s remedy: unite the legislature and the executive branch under a single leader who could resolve America’s fiscal issues with unilateral declarations.

“If those are his positions, he is certainly out of the mainstream,” May said after being informed of Zakaria’s policy recommendations. “It does suggest a worldview that is at the very least naÃ¯ve and doesn’t show a strong appreciation of what has made America a world leader and power all these years.”

I have written “EXTENSIVELY” exposing my former countryman (from India) Mr. Zakaria and his dangerous prescriptions. I have dwelt at length on his hate for most things non-Islamic. Time & again he has run to the defense of Islamists the world over, and ganged up against any power to portray them as the evil force, be it his adopted homeland the US, or his former homeland India, much like his Islamic scholar Indian father Rafiq Zakaria.

I have also written extensively about his desire to net a major office such as the “US Secretary of State”.

Here’s what I wrote:

Mr. Zakaria’s style smacks of a much greater ambition of reaching stellar eights in the public service arena to carry on with this overall Islamic agenda. In fact such efforts reached a crescendo when a web site propped up (from nowhere!) during the Bush-Kerry presidential campaign, appealing to the future US president to appoint Mr. Zakaria as the “Secretary of State”. Mr. Zakaria himself gave credence to that appeal when he said In an article published in 2003 in the New York magazine when he said: “My friends all say I’m going to be secretary of state. But I don’t see how that would be much different from the job I have now.”

No wonder a lot of Americans are seeing though Mr. Zakarai’s overall agenda and do NOT buy his, what outwardly appear to be very fair & balanced assertions. Most Americans have come to realize that they need to exercise a lot of caution while ingesting his “Cherry-Picked” facts, while paying “Most Attention” to NOT what he says, but what he “Does NOT say at all”!!!

This is very serious, if this becomes reality, this Administration has to go, we cannot allow any more Americans death, to satisfy Obama’s thirst for revenge and white blood, and we should not allow any more Muslim immigrants. The power of the President needs to be reduce NOW, he has too much power to do way too many things without even the approval of any one else.
